Infant Gas
All babies experience gas, and newborns are especially prone due to their developing digestive systems. While gas is usually harmless, it can cause discomfort. Excess gas occurs when food ferments too long in the intestines, leading to bloating and pain. Identifying and removing the cause often provides relief. While some gas is normal, excessive, painful, or foul-smelling gas is not.
Possible Causes for Gas:
Food allergies or sensitivities, is a common reason for gas. If your baby is formula-ed, consider switching formulas. Here’s an example of a fantastic, trusted formula brand—By Heart.
Gas Relief:
If your little one is struggling with gas, try Windi by Frida Baby. It’s a great tool to help relieve excess gas and encourage a bowel movement.
Probiotics for Gut Health:
If you’re bottle feeding, start with ProbioMed Infant Sticks and follow the instructions on the label for the right dose. For ‘on-tap’ breastfed babies, you can also apply the ProbioMed powder directly to your damp nipple before a feed, 1-2 times a day.
Consult with Your Healthcare Provider:
Always check with your doctor before adding any supplements to your baby’s routine—especially if new symptoms pop up.
Consider Seeing a Pediatric Chiropractor:
Gentle adjustments, and specific abdominal massage from a pediatric chiropractor can really help get things moving. We used this approach with Monroe, and it made a huge difference!
